Forum: Trade Machine Proposals1 hour ago

Thread: I hit publish to many times sorry

I like soucy and would be cool with him on our bottom pair, but unless we are making multiple trades moving out defensemen, we just dont have space to bring him in and certainly not spend a 2nd on him.

Thread: Two players I am interested in

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>So what you’re saying is you wouldn’t even accept 2nd overall lol</div></div>

Maybe, it would depend on how our FO saw the top defensemen in this draft compared to Jiricek and if they wanted to wait the additional time for the new draft pick to be ready.

Thread: Two players I am interested in

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ginandtacos</b></div><div>Well at least you're not overvaluing him or anything. lol.</div></div>

Im not saying they are equal value, just that the other pieces you have wont get him. To trade him we would need either a young 1RD or a young top line player. The only position that is more valuable than 1RD is 1C.

Thread: Two players I am interested in

The only thing that CHI has that can get them Jiricek is Bedard, and thats not going to happen. Laine wont be traded at his lowest value unless he requests a trade. Since that hasnt happened there is no reason for the Jackets to trade him unless someone wants to overpay.

Thread: The perfect offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HShockey</b></div><div>I'd be fine with a 3rd, or 4th just assuming that 2026 2nd is a mid to late 2nd. Would still do it if a later pick came back tbh</div></div>

Maybe if the pick was 4th or later, but i still think that offer could be beat at the TDL. id do it if it we werent sending a pick at all. Retained Provorov for a 1st.

Just realized that i think i read your comment wrong. You mean yall adding a pick coming to us. No that wouldnt move the needle much.

Thread: Mitchectomy

The jackets have no want or need for Kampf. We wouldnt take him for free, i would be surprised if any team would give up anything for him.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 4:52 p.m.

Thread: The perfect offseason

although i dont necessarily want to keep him, if we have to retain and all we are getting is upgrading a 2nd to a 1st, id probably just say we keep him and see if we can get more at the TDL.

Thread: Rossi to CBJ

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>That's not what you said. You said if the Wild trade Rossi it's because he can't be a 2C, and that's not true.

If you're trading Johnson for Rossi, first, I'm not actually sure you are providing an upgrade for Minnesota, and two, it's because you want a 2C, not a 2LW.

If you don't want to do it, that's fine with me, for the same reasons outlined above.</div></div>

If the wild are trading Rossi it means they dont see him as being their 2C of the future, and instead want to leverage him to a team for an upgrade. If they are trading Rossi for KJ, then they see KJ as an upgrade. If the wild thought he was a good 2C going forward, they wouldnt trade him because thats a high value position that isnt easy to find.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 4:32 p.m.

Thread: Rossi to CBJ

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>No it's not. If they trade Rossi it's because they were able to get a similar player (in terms of age, upside) with more size, or they were able to get an upgrade with team control.

We already know he can be a 2C because he did it last year.</div></div>

right so if we are the ones providing that upgrade, then thats not good for us.

Thread: Getting a new goalie and a higher draft pick

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shaun80</b></div><div>In any other draft year I'd probably agree with you.</div></div>

It doesnt matter if you agree or think this draft year is different. No gm is taking a late first to drop 5 spots and out of the top 5 in any draft.

Thread: Rossi to CBJ

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CBJ0521</b></div><div>size is the main thing I was thinking of that would hurt if we added a guy like rossi. I'd also sign up for Fantilli - Lindstrom - Silly - Vronk for sure. That's a tough group to deal with, especially with all the speed/skill we'll have on the wings</div></div>

I just dont think Rossi is a good fit for us, especially if it costs KJ. Also, If the wild are trading Rossi its because they dont think he can be their 2C, which is not a good sign for us if we are the ones trading for him to be our 2C.

Thread: Elvis needs a new home

i like you are sending Campbell and Ceci, 2 cap dumps, but we are the team retaining. Jackets FO would get a pretty good laugh out of this offer before they hung up

Thread: Getting a new goalie and a higher draft pick

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shaun80</b></div><div>You're just getting the player you want, not necessarily the better one.</div></div>

the better chance at one and more choices, like i said. Its the whole value that comes from picking earlier in the draft. It what you would paying for if you traded up, which would certainly cost more than a late 1st. No team is taking that trade.

I really hoping the Jackets take Lindstrom unless Demidov is still there.

Thread: Getting a new goalie and a higher draft pick

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shaun80</b></div><div>It depends on where the pick ends up I guess, could be anywhere from 24-32. It doesn't change the fact that you're still getting a really good player at 4th or 9th though.</div></div>

right but we are getting a better one at 4 than 9. or at least the better chance at a great player and more choices.

Thread: Getting a new goalie and a higher draft pick

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shaun80</b></div><div>Lose all the goalies from the swap and it's a pretty fair value trade. If Columbus has a specific player in mind then it doesn't make any sense for them. But skill wise most scouts have 4-11 all in the same group. So you'd still be getting a high end player. Personally I'd rather the Flames just pick the BPA at 9th.</div></div>

a late first isnt worth dropping from 4 to 9.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 2:36 p.m.

Thread: Getting a new goalie and a higher draft pick

Jackets easily pass. We dont need to bring in more prospects, we need higher end ones that we would get with a top 5 pick. We are one of the worst teams in the league and one of the youngest, we have no reason to trade for a 34 year old goalie.

Thread: Rossi to CBJ

Rossi is too small, with who we already have. Plus KJ has a much higher ceiling.

Thread: Turning A New Leaf

Marner will not waive, especially not to cbus. He also isnt worth Jiricek 1 for 1, let alone adding KJ. A marner trade to the jackets just doesnt make any sense.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 9:13 a.m.

Thread: Now is the time you get the two punch

Jackets, Z, and Marner all reject the trade. You are also pretty optimistic on the picks you are getting back for the players you dont want.

Thread: 87 in the rafters next to his childhood idols

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wreckless</b></div><div>Why no love for Harris?</div></div>

He is just not good enough to make a difference. He's fine for a bottom pairing, just like Bean. But we have too many defenseman and/or prospects anyway and Harris doesnt move the needle at all.

what if we dont want Bean or Harris. Hell we dont want Provorov either lol
